The emission spectra, observed from a spherical flow reactor at low pressures (0.1 to 2 Torr) were characteristic for each reaction system, and in some cases depended on the relative flow rates of the reactants and were affected by the addition of atomic hydrogen. These changes in spectral distribution can yield valuable information about the mechanisms of the elementary reactions involved. Thus in the O + C

' = 33 (163 kcal/mol, 680 kJ/mol) is observed at high acetylene flows and in the presence of added hydrogen. This is attributed to the reaction O + CH = CO + H + 176 kcal/mol (736 kJ/mol). Similar emission is also observed from the O + C
